U.S. oil and gas operators and current activity
A source-aware starting point for researching operators across permits, reported spuds, counties, states, and production windows. The preview shows aggregate signals; record-level rows, exact well locations, and full history remain inside the application.
Counts are dated public-record snapshots, not a live ranking or a national company total. Rows can use different review windows and should not be ranked against each other. Follow each operator link for its source notes. Permit, spud, and production dates describe separate record stages; a missing or unverified count is not zero.
Recent operator activity
Use an operator link for context, then request access when you need exact records, maps, exports, alerts, or API delivery.
Reviewed Sept. 18, 2026. Eddy/Lea only; one additional permit excluded for location review. Not a consolidated company total.
Permit interpretation corrected Sept. 12. The 13 reported-spud rows retain the Aug. 8 review; no new source pull.
Reviewed Sept. 18, 2026. MEWBOURNE OIL CO in Eddy/Lea; permits and spuds are independent event populations.
One operator, multiple record layers
Read permits as an early signal, reported spuds as a separate stage, and production as a separate reporting window.
Operator ↔ county context
Selected counties help you move from a company name to a territory question without exposing exact well or permit locations.
Source clocks stay visible
Different state systems update on different schedules. The date basis stays beside the signal so the preview is useful without pretending to be real-time.
Directory source clocks
Need the complete operator view?
The application adds exact permits and wells, source-filed labels, maps, saved filters, exports, alerts, and API/MCP delivery. Ask for the states, operators, and workflow you need.
Request accessCommon operator directory questions
What does the directory include?
Aggregate permit and reported-spud windows, active-county counts, state coverage, production-month context, and source dates.
Are permits the same as wells or production?
No. EnergyNetWatch keeps permits, reported spuds, well records, and production windows as separate record layers.
Can I search every operator here?
This first public layer is a curated featured set. The application provides broader filters, exact records, maps, and exports.
